Abstract

The reference of the brewing industry to the Monopolies and Mergers Commission (MMC) in August 1986 had brought about a slowdown in the rate of corporate activity within the industry, but by no means a complete cessation. Thus, just a couple of weeks after the announcement, Scottish & Newcastle (S&N) bid for Nottingham-based Home Brewery, at the invitation of the family owners, and then in the following year it made a second, this time successful, attempt to acquire Matthew Brown. By the end of 1986, however, events which would ultimately prove rather more significant for S&N were in train.
